Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree
Chapter 1363 - 480: The Might of the True Saint, Major Punishment and Minor Warning (Part 3)
The residual intense blood Qi pierced the sky, but was guided by Feng Ming, transforming into a golden furnace, held captive in his hand.
Meanwhile, the Primordial Spirit of Withered Bones remained silent, quickly fleeing towards the Netherworld, not daring to utter a single harsh word!
The Supreme True Saint of the Primordial Palace proved to be overwhelmingly domineering!
Feng Ming had no intention of letting his Primordial Spirit escape, directly intervening to intercept it.
At this moment, as Feng Ming appeared alongside others, ending the confrontational battlefield, among the various True Saints, someone shouted:
"Taoist Friend, stay your hand!"
Someone directly attempted to intercept, yet was stopped by Konghai who appeared with them.
And in that split second of delay, Withered Bones' Primordial Spirit had already fallen into Feng Ming's hands.
"Save me!"
The roar of Withered Bones echoed, making the resurgent True Saints from various factions expressionless.
Especially the True Saint from the same Heavenly Cutting Sect as Withered Bones, whose expression was furious yet dared not act rashly, only attempting to contact his peer, the Supreme True Saint.
He couldn't understand why, when previously on the True Saint battlefield, everyone acted according to rules, avoiding fatal attacks, with probing as the main intent.
Why, upon arrival in this world, did the Primordial Palace representative suddenly erupt with lethal force?!
Konghai smiled and said:
"It's merely a severe warning with minor admonishment."
The former's face twitched; he had only heard of minor warnings with severe admonishment, never the other way around!
"A disciple of our Primordial Palace dying in a battle of the same realm was due to his lack of strength, deserving of such calamity." Feng Ming stood mightily over the Sea of Realms, coldly overlooking the battlefield, "But if someone bullies the weak with the strong, this will be their outcome!"
Witnessing this scene, the powerful from various factions who had fled into the Netherworld were utterly terrified!
The factions they belong to all pride themselves as part of the Transcendence Gate, combined with the major true Transcendence Gates having been reclusive for a long time, which made them accustomed to "rampaging" within the Sea of Realms.
But today, the dominance exhibited by the Primordial Palace taught them a profound lesson.
Someone gave a long, meaningful glance at Ji Jingqiu and Feng Ming, then turned without another look and departed deep into the Netherworld.
Nanhua Palace's Misty True Saint said blandly, "Alright, let's leave it at that. Let's go."
Immediately, this person led a group of strong ones from Nanhua Palace towards the Netherworld, passing a message to Ji Jingqiu along the way:
"Let's have a discussion later, bring your Divine Weapon."
Feng Ming returned, reverting to his true form, and came before Ji Jingqiu, smilingly asked:
"Junior Brother Ji, how do you feel?"
Ji Jingqiu carefully contemplated the insights gained from the recent battle, and sincerely said:
"The strength of a True Saint exceeded my expectations. I initially thought that with the Green Master reaching the True Saint Divine Weapon level, we would have the qualifications to battle a True Saint. But now it seems I underestimated the True Saint Domain."
"That's already quite remarkable. Since ancient times, those able to reverse attack a True Saint as a Dao Ancestor in the Sea of Realms are very few, let alone a Heavenly Venerable. To reach this realm, theoretically, there are no weaklings, and shortcomings are rare."
Konghai approached, smiling, and said,
"Moreover, this individual is not an ordinary True Saint; he has reached the level of an Ancient, one step further and he will be in the domain where Feng Ming and I stand."
Ji Jingqiu curiously asked, "Senior Brother Konghai is also at the supreme level? How many Supremes does the Primordial Palace have?"
"We can present four or five," Konghai nonchalantly replied, "The Palace has been secluded for a long time, the number of True Saints is not large. However, over time, their realms are not low, most reaching the level of Ancients. Apart from protecting your Tao, this is also the first contact with the outside world from the Palace. Senior Brother Luo felt it best to select the most capable fighters, which is why they approached Feng Ming and me."
"And what about Senior Brother Yin An?"
"He was an addition."
Feng Ming chuckled, raising his hand, the residual blood Qi of Withered Bones was trapped in his hand, transformed into a crimson Dan pill, which he flicked to Ji Jingqiu,
"Take it. It is condensed from the blood Qi of a True Saint, you can gift it to body refinement future Heavenly Kings or use it for healing purposes."
Ji Jingqiu gladly accepted.
"When we enter the Netherworld later, we two may not always be by your side, you must be vigilant!" Feng Ming suddenly stated seriously.
Konghai also nodded and said, "The situation in the Netherworld is somewhat complex; we have discerned some of the conditions. Feng Ming's formidable suppression earlier was also a preemptive statement, serving as a 'guarantee' for you."
Ji Jingqiu shook his head and said, "Once back in the Netherworld, no matter if the person earlier pursued me with full force, I couldn't defeat them but could escape."
"Oh?" Feng Ming responded with surprise, "After witnessing the true disparity with a True Saint, you still have such confidence, Junior Brother?"
They could have intervened earlier but allowed Withered Bones to act several times, all for Ji Jingqiu to understand the gap within the realms.
Ji Jingqiu could fight against a Tao Ancestor as a Heavenly Venerable, but beneath the level of True Saint, it's entirely a different level of existence.
Nonetheless, Ji Jingqiu's performance was already quite impressive.
Feng Ming originally thought it extraordinary for Ji Jingqiu to withstand a single strike, yet Ji Jingqiu managed to gain the upper hand twice.
Truly, he is on par with the Ancestor Master in his youth!
"The Nether Sea is my domain."
Ji Jingqiu looked towards where the Netherworld was. Since the battle, he had been able to sense a calling from within the Netherworld.
